题目内容
1.Two small words can bring a smile to someone's face:thank you.But (43)Cdo you say these two words?Perhaps when someone holds the door open for you.Or when a friend does you a big favor.In Britain,people say"thank you"quite often,even at times when there is no (44)A.Sometimes we say it sarcastically (讽刺地). (45)B,if a friend throws my food away,thinking I was finished,I may say,"Oh,thank you!"Then my friend would reply,"Sorry."This can make a situation (46)Bconfusing (困惑的) to foreign people.
However,anyone working in the service sector (行业)-waiters,taxi drivers,shop assistants,bus drivers and so on-will (47)Da"thank you"from British customers.If you're happy with the driver who got you to school on time,or the waiter who served you food,say"thank you"to them.You're really saying"good (48)A".
I was first (49)Cthat people don't often say"thank you"here in China.But I know people can replace these words with a smile or nod.
Yet I can't change my British (50)Bof saying"thank you".Even here in China,I know I use these two words too much.But saying"thank you"is free,and I believe the more the better.
